Mary phoned again last week. The primary reason for the call was to speak to G, of course, but then he passed the phone to me and we chatted for almost half an hour. It must cost her a fortune, but it is so nice to hear her being more cheerful. All the anger and suspicion has gone, and she is being genuinely friendly.
Her letters are the same. Interestingly, It is apparently N's opinion that I would take her back in an instant if she asked. She asked me if that was true. I said I wouldn't rule it out, but it was very unlikely. Do I still love her? Maybe I do, a little. Am I happy to live without her. Absolutely.
She has offered to give me a chance to visit her again. On my own. Because it would use up one of her 'privilege visits', she has asked me not to tell either G or N about it. I hate keeping things from people, and if I wanted to drive a wedge between her and N, this is an easy way to do it, but I have no reason to be nasty and I genuinely want her to trust me. I would simply rather we be friends than enemies.
I am now waiting for the visitor order to arrive. The visit will be on a Thursday, so I will have to take a day off work. I mentioned it to L last night and she offered to come with me since she has friends in the same town she would like to visit.
"We'll take my car, so I can go to my friends," she said.
No, I don't think so. My car has leather seats, climate control and a 6-disc CD changer. I'll be going in mine, thanks. Besides, she would probably want to smoke.
